Haiku-a-day
A black and white dog stands in profile against a bed of blooming purple iris in springtime with the person who loves him most.

Time goes by quickly,
unshaped without your presence
that gave it meaning.

In Parma, Italy, a bouquet of purple irises against a plaque with names of those who have died.

The lessons all learned,
the plaques and words left behind,
and still, we forget.

A bouquet of lady's mantle, yellow iris, peony and lavender cut from a home garden.

My mother’s garden,
spring poppies and peony,
always irises.
